Went into the Seiko AD to check out the selection, but when I got there only a handful on display. When I asked if they had a snowflake in stock, they first told me no, but after a short discussion, they came out of the back with one and said they just got it in today! All within 5 minutes. Of course this would happen with a snowflake and not a 5711
Very fine piece itself, but my only wish was that it came in SS instead of Ti, but I'm probably the minority on this. Passed on a great piece as I just didn't believe it would get the wrist time from me it deserved. There were a couple other guys around me that saw me decline the snowflake. Hopefully one of them is now enjoying it.
